NATIONAL YOUNG WORKERS EDUCATION EVENT, 27th – 29thSEPTEMBER 2024, CARDIFF
The purpose of the LTB is to invite and encourage Branches to send delegates to this year’s National Young Workers Education Event which will take place over the weekend of Friday 27th September through to Sunday 29th September in Cardiff.
The venue for the event during the day will be held at The Holiday Inn, Castle Street, Cardiff. Hotel accommodation has been arranged at the same venue which is within walking distance of Cardiff Station.
Event Format
This year’s event has been slightly reformatted to encourage a more themed approach to topics and has an extended agenda to include a day to focus on industrial matters. This ‘industrial day’ is in essence a reworking of the Branch Young Worker Officers Forum’s which has previously been a stand-alone event. The day will involve a series of industrial panels giving young members the chance to engage with officers who deal with workplace issues affecting them.
Arrival & Registration
We are asking participants to arrive in Cardiff in time to for their appropriate panel, however they are welcome to attend all panels if they which to hear what is going on in other parts of the Union. Registration for the main event will take place on Saturday morning and the event will conclude at lunchtime on Sunday 29th September. A full agenda will be issued nearer the date. A flyer with more information is attached for circulation to young members.
Costs and Accommodation
The arrangements for the cost of delegates will be in line with the process that has been used for many years and is reflective of current pricing. The cost for Branches to send a delegate will be £290 and will include two nights bed and breakfast accommodation (as well as buffet lunches on the Saturday and Sunday and dinner on Friday evening). Please note there will be food and a social event on the Saturday evening organised by the Wales Region and their Young Workers.
